Liverpool to snap up sensational 21-year-old Spaniard

Liverpool wanted to sign Martin Zubimendi last summer, but he decided against leaving Real Sociedad after weeks of speculation over his future.

He is set to join Arsenal in the coming months, and it has been claimed Liverpool are now looking to bring in a younger alternative from Spain.

According to Anfield Watch, Liverpool are working hard behind the scenes to try and get their hands on Athletic Bilbao midfielder Mikel Jauregizar.

Liverpool scouts have been left impressed with what they have seen of the young defensive midfielder and believe he can be the disruptor in Slot’s team next season.

He has been brilliant in an Athletic Bilbao team who are set to qualify for the Champions League and have the best defensive record in La Liga.

It is believed the midfielder is prepared to step up, and a move to the Premier League champions this summer would appeal to the 21-year-old midfielder.

Liverpool are expected to step up their efforts to sign him soon.
